Zé Lucas and Raynan are a sertanejo duo from Goiânia, Brazil. They formed in 2019, with Zé Lucas (born José Lucas Faria) as the lead vocalist and songwriter, and Raynan (Raynan Luiz dos Santos) handling backing vocals, guitar, and production. Early on, they played local bars and faced some skepticism from labels about their style.
Their 2021 single "Copo Americano" became a breakout hit in Brazil. The song's melody and lyrics about unrequited love connected widely, leading to chart success and significant streaming numbers. That track helped them land festival slots and tour dates.
After "Copo Americano," they released albums like "Recinto dos Sonhos" in 2022 and "Barrados no Baile" in 2023. In 2022, they faced plagiarism accusations over the song "Pé na Cova," which they later apologized for and removed from platforms.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
